Copy of Planning and Transportation Commission 9/21/26 Regular Meeting

The City of San Carlos Planning and Transportation Commission held a regular meeting on September 21, 2026. The primary procurement-related discussion centered on a design review for constructing a new two-story commercial building at 916 Center Street in the industrial arts district. The commission reviewed the project details, including zoning compliance, landscaping requirements, and utility considerations. The applicant requested a minor waiver for landscaping coverage, proposing 9.3% instead of the required 10%, with plans to add greenery on a rooftop deck or street trees to meet intent. The commission discussed construction staging, stormwater management, and utility undergrounding. After public comment was closed with no speakers, the commission unanimously approved the design review request, with the decision subject to appeal to the city council. Additional reports included updates on housing-related events and environmental concerns, but no further procurement actions were noted.
